Текст песни Leonard Cohen - Store Room

It's not the wind that keeps you up it's not the snowIt's not the moon coming like a headlight through your windowIt's not the thumbnail of a screen that scrapes away your dreamIt's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

It's not the news of burning towns that ruins your mindLike a spool you turn and you turn but it won't unwindNo these wars you did not start they don't tear your sleep apartIt's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

And now this woman by your side well she's asleepAnd there's nothing you can give her and there's nothing you want to keepYou don't even try to prove that the noisy neighbour's making loveIt's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

Well go to sleep and change the locks when you wake upShare your toast maybe spill some coffee from your cupThere's nothing left to choose and there is so much more to loseThere's this man taking what he needs from the store room

It's not the news of burning towns that ruins your mindLike a spool you turn and you turn but it won't unwindNo these wars you did not stop they don't tear your sleep apartIt's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

And now this woman by your side well she's awakeBut there's nothing you can give her there's nothing you want to takeYou don't even try to prove that the noisy neighbour's making loveIt's just a man taking what he needs from the store room

Well go to sleep and change the locks when you wake upShare your toast maybe spill a little coffee from your cupHe's got nothing left to choose and you've got so much more to loseThere's a man taking what he needs from the store room
